Picture stepping outside to your own private oasis. No more avoiding your backyard during Florida’s intense summer heat or dealing with puddles after every afternoon storm.
Your new paver patio gives you a comfortable, safe space that stays cool underfoot and drains properly. You’ll finally have the outdoor entertaining area you’ve been wanting—one that works with Florida’s weather instead of fighting against it.
Whether you’re hosting weekend barbecues or just enjoying your morning coffee outside, you’ll have a space that enhances your daily life and adds real value to your home.
Since 1995, Mainstreet Landscaping has been the family business Ocklawaha, FL residents trust for quality outdoor improvements. We understand what works in Central Florida’s unique climate because we’ve been building patios here for nearly three decades.
As authorized contractors for premium manufacturers like Tremron, Flagstone, and Belgard, we use materials specifically chosen for Florida’s demanding conditions. Our team doesn’t just install patios—we create outdoor living spaces that enhance your property and stand up to whatever Mother Nature brings.
Being locally owned means we’re invested in this community long-term, not just looking for quick jobs before moving on to the next town.
The process starts with understanding exactly what you want from your outdoor space. We visit your property to assess the area, discuss your vision, and explain what options work best for your specific situation and budget.
Next comes the preparation work. Proper base preparation is crucial in Florida’s sandy soil and wet climate, so we excavate to the right depth and create a stable foundation that prevents settling and shifting over time.
Installation follows with precision placement of each paver, ensuring proper spacing and alignment. We finish with edge restraints and joint sand that locks everything in place. The result is a patio that looks great and performs reliably for years to come.

Every patio installation includes materials specifically chosen for Central Florida’s climate challenges. We use pavers that resist fading from intense UV exposure and won’t crack from temperature fluctuations.
The installation process includes proper drainage solutions—essential in an area that receives heavy seasonal rainfall. Your patio will shed water effectively instead of creating standing water problems that plague many outdoor spaces in this region.
You’ll also get the peace of mind that comes with working with state-licensed professionals who understand local building requirements and soil conditions. This isn’t a cookie-cutter approach—it’s patio construction tailored to perform well in Ocklawaha, FL’s specific environmental conditions.
Concrete and natural stone pavers perform exceptionally well in Central Florida’s climate. Concrete pavers resist fading from UV exposure and handle temperature changes without cracking, while natural stone options like travertine actually stay cooler underfoot during hot summer days.
The key is choosing pavers with low water absorption rates that won’t be damaged by Florida’s frequent temperature fluctuations during winter months. We work exclusively with premium manufacturers whose products are specifically engineered for Florida’s challenging climate conditions.
Lighter colored pavers are often the smart choice here because they reflect heat rather than absorbing it, keeping your patio more comfortable for barefoot use even during the hottest parts of summer.
Proper drainage is absolutely critical for patio installations in this area, and it starts with the base preparation. We create a slight slope away from your home’s foundation so water flows naturally off the patio surface rather than pooling.
The spaces between pavers also allow water to drain through the surface instead of running off in sheets. This prevents the standing water problems that make patios unusable after storms and reduces erosion around your home’s foundation.
For areas with particularly challenging drainage, we can incorporate additional solutions like French drains or permeable pavers that allow even more water to pass through the surface and into the ground below.
Most residential patio installations take between 3-5 days from start to finish, depending on the size and complexity of the project. Weather can affect the timeline since we won’t work in heavy rain or when the ground is too saturated.
The first day typically involves excavation and base preparation, which is the most critical part of the entire process. Days two and three usually cover paver installation and initial finishing work. The final day involves cleanup, final adjustments, and applying joint sand.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline during the initial consultation based on your specific project requirements. Rush jobs often lead to problems down the road, so we focus on doing the work properly rather than quickly.
Paver patios require surprisingly little maintenance when installed correctly. Regular sweeping and occasional pressure washing are usually all that’s needed to keep your patio looking great for years.
Joint sand may need to be replenished every few years, particularly after heavy storm seasons. This is a simple process that helps keep pavers locked in place and prevents weed growth between joints.
Individual pavers can be replaced if they ever get damaged without disturbing the rest of the installation. This is one of the major advantages of paver patios over solid concrete—repairs are localized and cost-effective rather than requiring complete replacement.
Yes, all patio installations come with comprehensive warranties covering both materials and workmanship. The specific warranty terms depend on the materials chosen and the scope of your project.
Premium paver manufacturers like Tremron, Flagstone, and Belgard provide material warranties that cover fading, cracking, and other defects. These are backed by companies that have been in business for decades and stand behind their products.
The installation warranty covers issues related to settling, shifting, or other problems that result from improper installation techniques. This gives you confidence that your investment is protected and that any issues will be addressed promptly and professionally.
Absolutely. We regularly work around existing pools, landscaping, irrigation systems, and other features that homeowners want to preserve. This requires careful planning and precise execution, but it’s something we handle routinely.
The key is identifying these elements during the initial site visit so we can plan the patio layout and installation process accordingly. Sometimes this means adjusting the patio shape or using specific installation techniques to avoid disturbing existing features.
We’re also state-licensed for irrigation work, so if existing sprinkler lines need to be relocated or modified to accommodate your new patio, we can handle that as part of the overall project rather than requiring separate contractors.
